Mama mia! This super quick Italian favorite is great served alone or on an Italian roll for sandwiches. This recipe for vegetarian lasagna sure is a winner!

What You'll Need

1 cup Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
1 (1-pound) eggplant, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 large eggs, beaten
1/4 cup vegetable oil, divided
1 (26-ounce) jar marinara sauce
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese

What to Do

Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Dip eggplant slices in eggs; dredge in breadcrumbs, shaking off excess.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Fry half of eggplant slices in hot oil until golden on each side. Remove from skillet; keep warm. Add remaining oil to skillet; fry remaining eggplant slices until golden on each side. Return reserved eggplant slices to skillet.
Pour marinara sauce over eggplant. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes or until eggplant is tender. Sprinkle with cheese; cover and simmer 1 to 2 more minutes or until cheese melts.

I've made this several times - we love it! So easy & flavorful - of course, the sauce is the all-important ingredient, so pick a good one or make your own.
